I’ve been involved in internet marketing for almost two years now. I’ve had a very steep learning curve, but it’s been worth it. What follows are some of the most important things I learned since I started with internet marketing.

1) You Don’t Need To Buy Everything You Want

The problem with good internet marketers is that they make you want to buy their stuff. What I learned is that most of the time the things I bought sat on my hard drive and collected dust. Of course this goes with the territory of learning anything new. Sometimes you have to spend a little money, but most of the time you’re better off keeping you credit card in your wallet.

2) The Most Important Thing You Can Build is a Mailing List

This gets to the root of all internet marketing. The only thing you need is a product and traffic to your website. But in reality, you don’t even need a product because you can sell other people’s products. So all your really need to be successful is traffic -people visiting your website.
